SocialTwist tell a friend Bookmarking Plugins
Written by admin on March 24th, 2009 in Internet.
SocialTwist tell a friend service brings you ‘Widget Applications’ that can add a twist to the way visitors use a website or a new way employees of a company collaborate at work.
Tell-a-Friend is the first of series of Widget Applications that form “SocialTwist Web”. Soon will launch Widget Applications for internal corporate use, called “SocialTwist Enterprise”.
For those who are not aware yet of the SocialTwist ‘Widget Applications’, Tell-a-Friend have provided two ways to enable Tell a Friend for the WordPress platform i.e. those who have the WordPress engine running on their own server:
- Tell-a-Friend plugin for WordPress engine – easy and hassle-free
Just download the plugin (from the SocialTwist site or from plugins at WordPress.org), install and activate it, just like any other WordPress plugin. Easy! The plugin will attach a Tell-a-Friend button on the bottom left corner of each post in a new line.
- Tell-a-Friend WordPress snippet – for the power blogger
Some of you would prefer to exercise greater control on the positioning of the button. For example, you may want it in the same line as some other buttons at the end of your blog posts or you may want it on the right hand side instead of the left. For such requirements, pasting the snippet at the right place in your WordPress template will do the job.
- Tell-a-Friend specially for WordPress.com
With people who have their blog(s) hosted on WordPress.com. Now, WordPress.com allows only adding HTML to the template. Javascript is not allowed. So our usual widget code can’t be embedded in it. We now have a new feature in which we embed an HTML button on the WordPress.com sidebar and have the announcements happen in another window.
